Back in 1979, my mom bought me 1933 Goudeys of Babe Ruth (#53) and Lou Gehrig (#92). I sold them in 1991, along with practically my entire collection.

Then in 2003 I was searching ebay and saw the Ruth, now a PSA 1. I recognized markings and creases on the card as identical to the one my mom bought me. It cost me $650 to buy it back, when it cost my mom $65 in 1979.

It was a very sentimental find for me, as my mom died in 2003, and those two cards were the first ones she ever bought for me when I was just starting in the hobby
